The name of the series "Bones" immediately sets the viewer on a sinister, chilling, sepulchral mood. And the audience is not mistaken in his forebodings - because this project is dedicated to harsh but at the same time very exciting weekdays, on the one hand, an FBI agent, on the other hand, scientist-anthropologist. And what question can converge the interests and the scope of the detective and the anthropologist, if not on the bones found which has an obvious criminal shade?

So, FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth and Dr. Temperance Brennan anthropologist working in a bundle, thus helping to restore the American justice the most complete and objective picture of the human remains found. If someone is not a big expert on American names, and do not feel up to the end of all the curious situation, we explain - Seeley Booth man and woman Temperance Brennan. But the high degree of their relationships is due not only to these. By a sort of "battle of the sexes" and added more professional collision and conflict of the characters.

Dr. Temperance Brennan is a typical scientist, even though pretty woman: almost the whole world for it is focused on the objects of her research, that is, the human remains in all their splendor and uniqueness. Like most of these scientists, it is, so to speak, the specific relationship with the rest of the world - is not interested in virtually anything that can not be it is useful to work, almost does not know how to build with others a relationship that went beyond her professional activities. Besides Temperance convinced that to achieve a result (that is to successfully complete the investigation) can only be due to the bare facts and pure science.

In Booth's agent a completely different situation, with all positions. Let's start with the fact that he is a very cheerful man, not fixated on one job. No, he's not some womanizer, not dragged after every skirt, but he is a nice young man, a bachelor, with all the consequences of this fact. In addition, he is confident that the capture of the perpetrators, as well as any kind of communication with the people requires not only scientific and technical equipment, and there should be more understanding of human nature, psychology, and often not superfluous will and intuition. It is not difficult to guess that this ground Agent Booth and Dr. Brennan (which lovingly Sealy name-calling "Bones") clashes and disputes arise at every step.

Whatever you say, and qualitative differences between the American and Russian serials (unless we are not talking about "narrow-minded comedies" and their clones, sitcoms) are huge and striking from the first minutes of viewing. The American series is almost a full-length movie with its own style, with its special formulation of the frame, with scenes that should attract the audience and motivate him, and not just be a pretext for casting replicas or another disgusting set filmed and full of car chase scenes. Moreover, most Russian serialschikov as the fire scared the moving camera and live a dynamic frame - as if at their disposal only one camera and they are terribly afraid of it accidentally break. In this regard, "Bones" is an excellent example of an interesting American series.

Of course, in this case the selection of the theme of the project is very specific - the dead, the bones, the morgues ... On the one hand, this will not just be watching. On the other - to bring to the screen the experienced and jaded modern viewer, you need to come up with something extraordinary. In addition, with each decade of the people belong to the species of human remains (at least on TV) less and less anxious and scrupulous. So the TV series "Bones" is a movie for people with the makings of cynics. But who in our time are not part cynic?

The main feature of the series is the relationship between a man and a woman, a sort of mixture of confrontation and cooperation, competition and flirt Flirting - this is serious . This technique is already a classic. But the broad "serial way", he came relatively recently, with the legendary "X-Files" and the best pair of investigators of all time Agent Mulder and Scully (left behind even Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson - their stories did not have romantic intrigue). Around the third or fourth episode of "Bones" realize that detective stories are only the background for the development of relations between the protagonists. It's always more interesting than just another extremely topical series. However, when the injection romantic passions stretch for several TV season (the show "Bones" has been published since 2005 and is currently represented for 5 seasons), sooner or later begins to tire. But this is the inevitable costs of long-running projects.

If you engage in thankless task and give the evaluation, the TV series "Bones" is, of course, high quality and professional products manufacturer, it is interesting to look at. But it does not have the zest that makes a good show spectacular or even a cult. In this case, the catch with the characters - actors are picked up well, but none of them, nor Emily Deschanel, David Boreanaz no, not a charismatic personality capable of once and for all fall in love with the viewer. For the series is one of the main conditions for a truly resounding success.
